A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

^ Uses 80s iconography to make fun of GenX's parents.

Isn't it ironic?

Depends if you ask a linguist or Alanis Morissette

Glad you caught the reference. Wouldn't it technically be irony in both cases?

A little too ironic

Moreso than a traffic jam, when you're already late for work?

Almost as much as 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife.

Sorry for the delay. I won the lottery and died the next day. Ironic.
